Who shouldn’t buy it
The spacious toebox of the Adidas Fluidflow 2.0 is a better choice for runners who need more room for their toes. For runners who are bothered with ankle blisters, the Adidas Duramo 10 has no reports from reviewers about heel rubbing. For wet-pavement lovers, the Adidas Supernova 2 is their best bet when it comes to a grippier outsole.
Out-of-this-world comfort with the Adidas Galaxy 6
“Awesome comfort” was how a critic described their first day out with these trainers. Another said that these daily runners are “so soft from the inside.”
As for the cushion, the Cloudfoam midsole gets positive feedback from many reviewers. One even said that “the Cloudfoam soles are the best.” It was “like walking on cotton” for another critic who put on their Adidas Galaxy 6.
Wide-footers have to go bigger
"The sizing is way off" was what a critic mentioned when slipping into these trainers. Another also had to return them as they found these to be "tight all around." For wide-footed runners, it is recommended by many to size up.
The Adidas Galaxy 6 makes breaking a sweat more fun
For a day at the gym or a casual stroll, these trendy trainers are loved by many buyers. One critic even described these as “cozy shoes” for walking and working out.
On the other hand, taking these shoes out for a run, a reviewer was very pleased as they said that these “feel like walking and running on clouds.” Another also appreciated the pep in their step as they mentioned that these “have a nice bounce to it.”
Caution: slippery when wet
For the gym or for miles of dry pavement, the Adidas Galaxy 6 performs well. However, many reviewers caution others to go slow around water. As one critic said: "Be a bit wary when the surface is wet."
The Adidas Galaxy 6 is crazy affordable
At its $60 price point, the Adidas Galaxy 6 is a super affordable daily trainer. To put this in perspective, the average price of many road daily trainers on our database is $114. This confirms how a buyer called these “pocket-friendly.”
Completes the sporty outfit
For a trendy runner, the Adidas Galaxy 6 is a go-to for the athletic look with its “killer appearance.” Matching these with a pair of jeans and a casual dress is also a staple in a reviewer’s many outfits as they found the design to be “super cool.”
For those who are still doubtful about the looks, one buyer says that these are “more beautiful than the pictures.”
A bothersome heel
Some reviewers recommend that these be matched with mid to high-cut socks as the heel tends to rub against their ankles. One critic says that the heel slips with each step even though these shoes felt a tad small.
